Chloe and I ventured down to Sydney on Friday for lunch with clients who have a thriving generators business. Both sales and service. Lunch was at the delicious The Paper Mill in Liverpool. Fabulous use of what was an old paper mill. The restaurant boasts a ranmge of outlets from pizza to Lebanese food to […]
Great marketing is often about context. This is great marketing.
This sign is great marketing. It’s great marketing because of context. You see, it’s on the way up to a cliff-top lookout at Shelly Beach at Manly, NSW. Look outs are, sadly, a place where people can struggle. So a sign like this on the way up may offer some hope. Relevant and makes sense. […]
What little Billy can teach you

Why would you possibly promote another business and help with their branding on something as simple, easy and cheap as a “We’re closed” sign? The commission of food delivery service (think […]
